but "Behind Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Last Crusade is the third-highest grossing Indiana Jones film" explanation?--Olağan Şüpheli (talk) 11:28, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
Is the current formatting of the references section deliberate? Under a subheading "Citations", we have the "Making of..." book and a bibliography for theraider.net's extensive production coverage. Because none of the inline citations point directly to either of these, should they instead be placed in the "Further reading" section? Steve T • C 12:47, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
This is a pretty good article. Are there any setbacks as to why this hasn't bee nominated yet? I did a lot of work on this article like a month ago, but Alientravller is responsible for how awesome this article is. I probably should add info (if any, Alientraveller seems to have covered everything on the visual effects section) from the ILM book I own before this nomination happens. Thoughts?

I am in no way trying to fight you. I am simply telling you your edits were not well-written. To be blunt, you shouldn't be surprised I would undo you for grammar reasons since English is not your first language. Now stop edit-warring and wait for the GA review. If someone wants to expand the lead, do so without sentences like "With the diary as a vital key and the map with no names as a guide, Indiana Jones once again finds himself in another death defying adventure of pure excitement." or "Spielberg made the plot to do something about the past of Jones as he was afraid the film grosses far less than the two previous film."

Nominating Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, because it meets all the needs to be a GA article.
I am glad to say that this article which was nominated for good article status has succeeded. This is how the article, as of May 17, 2009, compares against the six good article criteria:
This article is stylistically well-written, and wonderfully cited. It covers all aspects of the film, from the actual plot, to the cast and marketing. Because the film is still so new, this article will change with time, just make sure that the article does not contain personal reviews (no original research). Good job to all editors who contributed to this article, and, to any future editors, keep up the good work! -Batpoddriver (talk) 10:18, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Overall this is a great article, but I don't quite understand the "cultural references" section. Usually these sections include references the movie makes to well known cultural (or Pop cultural) symbols and ideas. This seems to be more a list of inside jokes (the names of characters stemming from dogs or Frank Marshall's magic act, for example). These aren't Cultural References but rather inside jokes, references to earlier movies, or-dare I say it- trivia). 68.6.185.21 (talk) 21:21, 25 June 2010 (UTC)CaptainJohnson

I suggest you watch through the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles episode "British East Africa, September 1909" before you finalise the origin of his ophidiophobia. I don't where you got this false quote "It's only a snake", but he says nothing of the sort. Please check the facts. Deltasim (talk) 19:15, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Judging by his screaming and running away in that part of his adventure, his fear of snakes is definite before the Last Crusade. Indeed he did switch on and off his ophidiophobia, but saying he develops ophidiophobia in that film doesn't quite make sense. If simply put his ophidiophobia was flaring up again it is more likely. The chronology is important to focus on. Deltasim (talk) 19:58, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Okay problem solved. Deltasim (talk) 20:06, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Before the castle scene, the location is referenced as "on the Austrian-Berman border." Burg Wittelsbach in the Grünwald was destroyed long before filming. What, then, I wonder is the castle shown in the establishing shot? Does anyone have a source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by David.cormier (talk • contribs) 21:23, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
Isnt it "Brunwald"? KhlavKhalash (talk) 11:59, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
The last knight strongly resembled the image on the Shroud of Turin. Is this resemblance intentional or merely coincidental? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.207.246.4 (talk) 02:18, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
How do you figure? I see noch sich resemblence KhlavKhalash (talk) 12:00, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
The Plot says that the young Indiana is 15, while the image in development says he is 13. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 23:00, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
The article speaks of Indy fighting over a "crucifix" that once belonged to Coronado. According to Wikipedia, a crucifix contains a figure of Jesus hanging on the cross. As I recall, the piece in the movie was just a bare cross.67.45.98.181 (talk) 18:42, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
If you look at freeze-frames (or the film) you will see there is a tiny Jesus on the cross, so though they refer to it in dialogue as "cross" it fits the Wiki definition of crucifix. Henry chianski (talk) 23:11, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
